Carp
Littleton, North Carolina, offers some surprisingly good carp fishing, primarily in Lake Gaston. This large reservoir, formed by the Roanoke River, provides ample habitat for carp to thrive. The best time to target these golden giants is during the warmer months, from late spring through early fall, when they're actively feeding in shallower waters. Pre-baiting your chosen spot with corn or boilies a day or two in advance can significantly increase your chances. For bank fishing, try areas near Pea Hill Creek or the Hwy 48 bridge. A local tip: carp in Lake Gaston seem to have a particular fondness for strawberry-flavored boilies. Be prepared for a fight; these carp are strong and can easily spool lighter tackle. Also, be aware of the fluctuating water levels on Gaston, which can impact access and fish location.
